Where are we now?

Living on the Boat

A lot has happened since New Year's Eve. George and Kristy flew back to Arizona on the 2nd. We did errands and chores for a few more days in Florida, then flew back to Arizona on the 6th, same day as Madi returned from Japan. We eventually got Madi's moving pod repacked and headed up to San Jose. Koji flew down to Phoenix but got sick, then me, so Heather and Madi drove Madi's car to San Jose on the 13th with Koji in the back, leaving me at home to recover and then keep packing. Heather flew back to Phoenix on Tuesday the 17th and we packed our guts out, finishing moving out of the master suite in the house a few hours before our flight to Florida left on the 21st. We got back to the boat and everything was fine. A few more days of organizing and provisioning and we were (mostly) ready to leave the marina on the 25th, today. After topping up on diesel we headed back down the river and turned left. We're now anchored in the southeast corner of Clearwater harbor, just north of the Belleair bridge. It's taco night.


We've officially moved out of the bedroom we've lived in for over 25 years, and two of Chelsea's new room mates are moving in this week. We still have quite a bit of stuff in what was Madi's room. We come back in March to finish sorting thru that. Maybe we will get completely out of the house, maybe not just yet, but we now live on the boat, and are just visiting Mesa. The nearest commitments Heather and I have are some medical appointments and a handbook meeting in March. We want to get to the Dry Tortugas and Key West next month sometime. But day to day, we'll just see what happens.
